[mythtv-users] Help: Failed to connect to (127.0.0.1:6543) Connection refused

[Craig Huff]

Unless... it has to do with the fact that ~mythtv/.mythtv/config.xml
contains this line:
        <Host>localhost</Host>

I'll try changing "localhost" to the hostname of the master backend (same
machine) and see what happens.
